There are only four ways that substances interact, or if you prefer, four forces in the universe. They are gravity, the weak nuclear force, electro-magnetic, and the strong nuclear force. In molecules ( presumably in liquid or gaseous states ) they will be slightly pulled together by gravity, but it is the electro-magnetic force that governs everything else. Whether they bind together, break down into component atoms or simpler molecules, form new compunds, etc. is all part of the electro-magnetic interaction.

What type of bond between the atoms forming water molecules?
Hydrogen bonds are the strongest intermolecular force between water molecules, it occurs between a negatively charged oxgen atom of one water molecule and the positively charged hydrogen atom. This is the strongest inter molecular force there is.
Which type of force is found between difluorine (F2) molecules?
ionic bonding
The type of chemical bond exists between the atoms in a water molecule?
the two hydrogens and the oxygen are covalently bonded together. water molecules are bonded to other water molecules by hydrogen bonds
Is covalent bonds a type of intermolecular force?
No. A covalent bond acts solely within a molecule.An intermolecular force acts between two or more separate molecules
What type of macro molecule is iron?
No, iron is a metallic element and do not exists as molecules, macro molecules are those which contain thousands of atoms or molecules as a single unity as starch, proteins etc.
What type of van der Waals force exists between molecules of oxygen?
Oxygen molecules are not polar, so their are no dipole attractions. Further, there are no hydrogen bonds holding oxygen molecules together. The only real intermolecular force would be dispersion forces.
What type of bond between the atoms forming water molecules?
Hydrogen bonds are the strongest intermolecular force between water molecules, it occurs between a negatively charged oxgen atom of one water molecule and the positively charged hydrogen atom. This is the strongest inter molecular force there is.
Which type of force is found between difluorine molecules?
London bond
Which type of force is found between difluorine (F2) molecules?
ionic bonding
Which type of fore exists for every other force?
The type of force that exists for every other force is the reactive force whereby for every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction
What type(s) of intermolecular forces are expected between SF6 molecules?
London Force / van der Waals force
What type of attraction occurs between nonpolar covalent molecules?
In non-polar covalent molecules weak forces exists & are known as Van der Waals' forces
The type of chemical bond exists between the atoms in a water molecule?
the two hydrogens and the oxygen are covalently bonded together. water molecules are bonded to other water molecules by hydrogen bonds
What type of relationship exists between time and wind speed?
What type of relationship exists between time and wind speed?
Is covalent bonds a type of intermolecular force?
No. A covalent bond acts solely within a molecule.An intermolecular force acts between two or more separate molecules
Is hydrogen bonding is a type of bonding or not?
Hydrogen bonding is a type of intermolecular force of attractionAdded:This is between molecules.It is not as strong as chemical bonding within molecules (intramolecular) though.
What type of interaction exists in a non-polar species?
Non-polar species will interact through dispersion forces. Dispersion forces are attraction between the positive nucleus of an atom and the negative electrons of another atom. Dispersion force, also known as London forces, are the weakest intermolecular force and occur from temporary dipoles forming in molecules.
